This highly-awarded 1963 Nova convertible is the bomb. In fact, it is known as the Atomic Bomb in the custom car hobby. This big-inch showpiece was a custom build completed by Superior Auto Works in Frederica, Delaware, and the effort shows from every angle. Among the accolades are a 2012 Great 8 finalist for the Detroit Autorama Ridler Award, Best Custom at 2014 ISCA Cavalcade of Customs in Cleveland and even the overall 2015 ISCA Custom Car of the Year. When looking at the fabrication here, you will notice many changes to the vehicle, with everything blended together. The rocker panels and undercarriage were joined to the splash pans, while the inner and outer fenders and front cowl were welded to the body, all smoothed for a truly singular appearance. Under the hood is firepower in the form of a ZZ454 big-block V-8 engine with a custom air breather, polished intake and valve covers, and headers. Backing this up is a Turbo 350 automatic transmission and Strange Engineering 9-inch rear end. Meanwhile, ride stance comes from a Heidts 4-link rear suspension, Scott's Hot Rods independent front suspension and Air Ride Technologies Shockwaves. Coming down from highway-legal speeds is via Wilwood 4-wheel disc brakes. But, where this car really shows its style is inside the custom Paul Atkins interior. Equipped with Vintage Air and power windows, with the vent-wing windows eliminated, there is a custom-fabricated dash with three gauge pods and the Air Ride controls were conveniently placed into the custom center console. The car is covered in deep tangerine with a red convertible top and features a custom-fabricated 2-inch rear spoiler plus shaved and smoothed bumpers. The 18-inch Schott Axiom wheels and low-profile tires befit the overall appearance perfectly. Taking home an award as prestigious as the ISCA Custom of the Year is a huge testament to the quality of this vehicle. Its next owner should be just as awe-struck.
